The NAP COMIX Kickstarter closes TOMORROW so if you've been thinking about pre-ordering my new book please do it soon!

It includes the 1st year's worth of comics from the webcomic, as well as LOADS of exclusive content.

Please take a look here: tinyurl.com/napcomixks

Thank you! (& please share!)
A list of reward tiers from the NAP COMIX Kickstarter DIGITAL - £7, PHYSICAL - £13, SIGNED & SKETCHED IN - £20 What's in the book? 200 pages of wonder, sleep deprivation, heartbreak, joy, surviving and thriving. A 5-panel comic. Panel 1) The 4am feed with Henry can feel very lonely. Panel 2) I try to think of others that are also awake at that time like...nocturnal animals? Panel 3) Students studying for a test? Panel 4) And of course, people doing the same thing as me. Panel 5) When I think about them, I feel much less alone. A 2-panel comic. Panel 1) Caption: A few months ago. Henry is stroking Rachael's face. Rachael: Aaaaa Rob, he's stroking my face! Rob: (off-screen) Aw! Panel 2) Caption: Now. Henry is pulling Rachael's face in very uncomfortable-looking ways. Rachael looks non-plussed.

You can access the survey right here ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/run...
Until Friday September Fifth, there is a public consultation on the future of the Basic Income for the Arts scheme. I encourage you to make your thought's known. I've only shared my own and one of the few I know also on the scheme, but our stories are not unique. Many of us have dramatically improved artistic output and quality of life. In these uncertain times we want to push for this to continue, to take on a larger cohort. The cost to fund these artists has proven to be neutral to the economy and we all end up spending more if we're not struggling to make ends meet. Continuing would only enrich our lives and keep Ireland's rich artistic history charging forward. Just search "public consultation B I A 2025" or visit the link I post below.

The creative response to this seems to be to complain in fathomless Bluesky threads rather than read it and fill out the consultation. It took me a couple of hours and was hard, boring schoolwork. But if we do not actually interface with the process, then we might as well give up now.

If you’re a creator or work in the creative industries or otherwise have a heart, then please add your voice to this UK Gov consultation on AI and Copyright. I said ‘freelance’ for company and ‘unsure’ for super-granular legal stuff but made my voice heard. You can too. www.gov.uk/government/c...
Copyright and Artificial Intelligence
This consultation seeks views on how the government can ensure the UK’s legal framework for AI and copyright supports the UK creative industries and AI sector together.
